What is the solution to this equation

25.54 = 15.52 + 5x

x = 2.004

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we need to get the variables to one side of the equation, so we must subtract 15.52 from both sides to get 5x on its own. When we do this, we now have 10.02 = 5x. We now have to solve for x and to do this we must divide both sides of the equation by 5. When we divide 10.02 by 5 we have 2.004. x = 2.004

correct me if i am wrong.

you forgot the options, but i found them anyways, the correct answer is "john wilson believes that words and actions based on the intellect are superior to those based on emotions".

john wilson is depicted as an extremely intelligent man. the point of the excerpt is to make a sort of distinction between emotional and rational intelligence. he happens to have both attributes, but he clearly favors his intellectual gifts. at the same time, because of his religious background, he's a little bit conflicted with this and it makes him ashamed.

hope this !
